Looks like the Maserati boys are cooking up a new GT — though with that duckbill front-end disguise, it looks more like a new take on the Bricklin. Spies caught a prototype during cold-weather testing in Sweden. Sources say the new coupe version — with a longer wheelbase for more rear legroom — will debut at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show. A new version of the Ferrari-bred 4.2-liter V8, bored out to 5.0 liters said to produce 470hp, will power the new model, while the Quattroporte's Cambiocorsa clutchless gearbox will swap cogs. No word on whether a rumored Pininfarina-sourced spider version will join it in the land of good chocolates and bad wifi.
